Right now, when drug busts occur, often "Large Quanitities of Cash" are found. This is implied as being almost illegal. If you have large quantities of cash, you are probably doing something illegal. In the future, cash is most likely going to be obsolete, no one will use it. In order to allow this to happen nicely and so that criminals will have no use for cash I have a suggestion for legislation. A law would exist which would make it illegal for the government or anyone else to track the movements of a person by where they are buying products, using the nationwide-electronic-currency system. (Right now we can say, using CCs and ATMs.) This will help stop the trend toward a big-brother type government in the US. Could someone maybe write a legal-type thing that could be legislated to do this. (Maybe it would mandate writing software that makes it IMPOSSIBLE to do something like this.) Then once this text is written, we can all send copies to all the senators and congresspeople. -- The Ravings of the Insane Maniac Sameer Parekh -- zane@ddsw1.MCS.COM
